Police backing misguided youths to join mainstream by giving platform to show skills : Srinagar DGP

Srinagar, Oct 22 (UNI) Director General of Police (DGP) Dilbagh Singh on Thursday said police is working to bring back youths into the mainstream who on the instigation of Pakistan sponsored mafia get involved in anti-national activities.
Even militants are being provided a chance to surrender during encounters, DGP Singh said at the closing ceremony of martyrs T-20 cricket tournament organised by police at Badgam in central Kashmir.
He said it has been our policy to get back our youths who on the instigation of Pakistan sponsored elements get involved in anti-national activities.
Talking to reporters on the sideline of the event, DGP said police and other security agencies are making all possible efforts to get even trapped militants surrendered.
Getting armed youth surrendered at Badgam, Shopian and in Baramulla are the recent examples, he said.
He said during ceasefire violations Pakistan is making all out attempts to push militants into this side. However, he said our anti-infiltration grid on the Line of Control (LoC) is very strong to foil these attempts.
He congratulated the District Superintendent of Police Badgam and other partner groups for organising the event.
He said the primary aim of organising various youth-oriented sports activities are to provide a platform to the budding talent and a chance to the youth to participate in positive activities which were affected by the COVID-19.
The DGP said out of these tournaments we are looking forward to making one specialized team that will be provided support to represent Kashmir at the national level. He said Jammu and Kashmir Police is on the forefront to provide opportunities to the youth to showcase their skills.

Shivraj uses Imarti issue to ram Nath, again

22 Oct 2020 | 6:06 PM

Bhopal, Oct 22 (UNI) Madhya Pradesh Chief Minister Shivraj Singh Chouhan on Thursday reiterated his demand that Congress President Sonia Gandhi initiate action against her party’s state President, erstwhile central minister and former chief minister Kamal Nath for his objectionable remark against a lady minister.
“I have already dispatched a communication to Mrs Gandhi in this regard. However, it is yet to elicit a response. I made it abundantly clear that if she does not furnish a reply it shall be construed that the Congress supremo concurs with Mr Nath’s words. In fact, the Election Commission has sought an explanation from him. Mrs Gandhi is a mother, sister and daughter therefore must take measures against Mr Nath,” the senior politician told members of the Fourth Estate in the state capital prior to continuing on the Assembly by-poll campaign trail.
